Think you are being disrespectful to Dobbo with those comments.

When have rumours ever considered themselves?

I knew the penny would drop eventually. Even the most dumb eventually realise

@RLFansUK: Lots of rumours circulating tonight that Wigan have made an offer for Greg Eden.

I've heard a rumour we are above hull in the table. Again.

How would that affect the clause in his contract involving Huddersfield and their 'first dibs'?

IIRC that clause was only if Greg wanted to go back.

Well, yeah.

If we sold him, it would probably burn the obvious bridges we have with Huddersfield as they were keen enough to oversee that clause being present.

More made up crap.

Irrelevant as rovers aren't a selling club as hudge has already said

So many rumours, yet not even a thread on the Wigan board. How strange.

At least we have players people want to buy. must be doing something right, kind of flattery in a way.

Wigan are tracking Sydney Roosters full-back Anthony Minichiello who is OOC at the end of this season.

They're probably in shock that they've signed Eddy Pettybourne.

He said he's staying at Sydney but is expecting to switch to the wing.

Surely if Wigan where after a New Fb Shannon Mc would be top of there wish list

Are we turning into a feeder club for the champions elect?

Your problem then is that once all the quality players have gone elsewhere you're in the mire.

Terrible signing,
He is straight up and down, has no skill at all.

We lost a number of players last year, brought in repalcements and are better this year.

Wigan lost Leuluia, finch, Lima etc last year were they a selling club? They're losing Richards, prob Tomkins (their talisman) and no doubt others. Have you been on their site waxing lyrical about their impending doom?

I'm not waxing lyrical as you put it. It was an honest question but like so many on these forums you're straight on the defensive, so I'll leave you to it.

Same problem as every club faces. You lose players, you bring in replacements. Hey ho. We've heard it all before 12 months ago. Out went Green, Taylor, Watts, Mcdropit & Galea.

Fast forward a couple of months and the replacements assemble, to howls of derision from your lot, shopping at Aldi etc. The result being 10th last year, somewhere 6th-8th this year based on current form/remaining fixtures.

Sorry if it sounded defensive, it wasn't intended to. What I was trying to do was instill a bit of perspective.
Wigan have over the last couple of years lost a lot of their top players, key individuals who would seem like a huge loss. No one seems to think they are a selling club yet it would seem the whole of SL in reality are.

You never asked a question though. You made a HKR doomsday statement and offered nothing to back it up. Some posters offer a differing opinion (or perspective as BR says) to yours, and then you get all upset and claim 'we' get [i'defensive'[/i.

Players come and go from all clubs, always have and always will, as far back as i can certainly remember anyway.
However, in light of the fact that we have lost Dobson, Pea and Paterson, plus with the long awaited investment been on the horizon, i would think that Neil Hudgell and the board will now try and build the squad around such players a Greg Eden,Travis Burns, Josh Hogson, Liam Salter Alex Brown and some of the younger players, these are the future along with, two or three quality signings to replace the ones that will be moving on to pastures new.

Makali Aizue.

Doesn't like Ram Stadium as it only serves Tetley's at half time.
